General
Straight out of the Godin workshop, the Havana Burst-finished Metropolis LTD has all the looks of a 1930s Dreadnought but comes with the reliability offered by 21st century features. The Graphtech TUSQ string-nut gives the Metropolis a level of tuning stability you just couldn't get and maintain on an antique acoustic. This, while the solid cedar top, mahogany sides, back and neck and ebony bridge form an incredibly rich and warm overall sound that will refine both finger-picking and strumming playing styles.
The Godin Metropolis LTD: LR Baggs Anthem Preamp
Seamlessly integrated into the body of the Godin Metropolis LTD is an LR Baggs Anthem preamplifier, microphone and pickup - all of which has been calibrated to faithfully reproduce the acoustic sound of this instrument. The piezo pickup level can be blended with that of the microphone as preferred while the rest of the preamp controls include a volume pot, feedback reducing phase switch and battery indicator. Two strap buttons are fitted so a standard strap can be used and this electro-acoustic guitar even comes with its very own Deluxe TRIC hardshell case.
